Own The Spotlight is a podcast where authors take center stage to present their work — in their own words and without an interviewer. Each episode features a solo monologue in which the author introduces themselves, shares what inspired their latest book or article, and reflects on the journey behind the writing. You'll hear candid insights about their intended audience, the creative process, surprises along the way, and what they hope readers will take away from their work. Whether you're a curious reader, fellow writer, or publishing enthusiast, Own The Spotlight offers a rare, candid look at authorship — and plants the seeds for your next literary exploration.

40. Should Your Customers Trust Your Business?

Oct 8, 2019

This week on The Disruptive Voice, Derek van Bever is joined in the studio by venture capitalists Nate Redmond and Britt Danneman, of Alpha Edison, to discuss trust as a business model, as an asset, and as the foundation for new market innovation. Earlier this year, Nitin Nohria, Dean of Harvard Business School, wrote in the Financial Times that HBS and other business schools need to play a vital role in "molding leaders who deserve the world's trust." At The Forum for Growth & Innovation, we're responding to Dean Nohria's gauntlet by studying business models built on risk-shifting and by starting discussions about the role of trust and ethical leadership in business. We hope you'll enjoy this timely and thought-provoking conversation!
